30 Day Blog Challenge: Day 14 - Current TV Show

I had a sheltered childhood, and during college I was too busy to watch TV.

However, thanks to the world of Netflix, I can happily binge watch all the shows I missed or didn't have time for when I was younger.

My current binge is "Charmed".  I'm nearly through season 4 (what the hell?? They killed of Prue!!!?).

30 Day Blog Challenge: Day 13 - Favorite Musician

So you want to know my favorite musician? Well, you might as well as me which one of my children I love the most!

I seriously have always had a love of music since I was small. I sang through high school and even wrote some songs and preformed as a young adult.

Music isn't something you just hear, it something you feel in your bones. I'm very eclectic and like all kinds of music (except screamo- that's what my daughter calls it).

I have several favorites that come to mind off the top of my head. I love Ellie Golding, Lady Gaga, 30 Seconds to Mars, Tim McGraw, Sia, Black Veil Brides, Twenty-One Pilots and the list goes on.

However, if you really want to get to the root of my music love, just ask which concerts I've been to. The answer? Backstreet Boys... several times actually lol

I know, I know, it makes me a total nerd/fan girl but I don't care. I can't help but turn up the radio anytime one of there songs come on. Probably because it reminds me of being a teenager. I had my walls plastered with pictures of them torn out of "Tiger Beat" and those other magazines.

So I guess, if I were forced to pick, I would have to say my original was definitely Backstreet Boys. But since then, I have opened up my ears and heart to all kinds of music!

30 Day Blog Challenge: Day 12 - My town


So today I'm supposed to show you a picture of the town I live in. Well, this picture is special because I actually took it. No, it's not of the town as a whole, though a large portion of our little town was here. 

This was a special Fourth of July celebration in our town and, with the help of a friendly fireman, I scaled the ladder to take an overhead photo!

This only shows a quarter of the activities taking place that day. But it gives you an idea of the small town love and feel :)

30 Day Blog Challenge: Day 11 - My makeup bag

So you want to know what's in my makeup bag?  Well, to be honest, I don't keep a makeup bag in my purse. Well, not really.

I do, however, keep a steady supply of my favorite lip products on hand because that's the only makeup I really ever update throughout the day.

Those products are by Buxom and the shade? Dolly!  This is the PERFECT shade for me and I have it in liner, gloss and lip stick! lol  It is the perfect shade for my skin tone and makes my teeth look white while still looking natural.

30 Day Blog Challenge: Day 10 - Favorite place to eat

Today's challenge is to show you my favorite place to eat. I really have no clue on this one. I mean, I enjoy eating all kinds of food, but I don't really have a favorite (nor a favorite place).

I love Chinese food, sushi, medium rare steak... there is very little that I will not eat (though I don't like olives nor do I like mushrooms - though I will eat them on a pizza as long as there are loads of other toppings so I can't taste them).

I sort of bomb out on this one I guess because I simply can't pick. But at least I posted something right?

30 Day Blog Challenge: Day 7 - Dream Wedding

Today's 30-Day blog challenge is to show you my dream wedding.

Well, since I'm already married to the man of my dreams, I can't exactly replace our wedding. But if we were to do some type of vow renewal, then I would have to say something along these lines.

A simple renewal on the beach in Hawaii or another tropical location. We were married in the middle of winter, so a warm location would be a nice change of pace!

30 Day Blog Challenge: Day 6 - Possible Pet?

Today's challenge is to post a picture of an animal you'd love to keep as a pet.

Since Great White Sharks are a bit on the big side and are nearly impossible to keep in captivity, I went with a different choice.

There are lots of animals I would like to keep as a pet, but I'm probably in the minority when I say I love snakes.

The snake pictured is a breed of corn snake. Perfectly harmless.

I actually had the pleasure of working with one during my time volunteering at our local zoo. I absolutely loved working with him.
